Over Me

Lyrics

I stand in the doorway
It’s just me and the streetlight
It’s been a long night
I stand in the driveway
Cussing at the moon
Throwing punches at the sky

And it all turns against me
My own eyes
My own everything
And the world rolls by on time
But I’m late
Yeah, I’m stumbling

And it all falls back over me
Over me again
I’m underneath a tidal wave
And it all falls back over me
Under me again
Lost in outer space

Well the party isn’t over
But I’m still gonna leave
Leave her to the others
Tell myself I’m free
Well it was just me breathing
She’s not missing me
No she’s probably somewhere warmer
Than where I fall asleep

And it all falls back over me
Over me again
I’m underneath a tidal wave
And it all falls back over me
Under me
Again, lost in outer space

And I can’t tell if
This ocean will carry away
The burning body
Or leave me lying awake

I never wanted to fall like that
But maybe I was the cloud
I only wanted to find you
But I was too proud

And it all falls back over me
Over me again
I’m underneath a tidal wave
And it all falls back over me
Under me
Again, lost in outer space

And I can’t tell if
This ocean will carry away
The burning body
Or leave me lying awake
